Taking inspiration (and hopefully not resources) from finbutler999’s fantastic revision mats I developed more for my own classes. Each mat is an opportunity to summarise key knowledge of a subject and practice exam style content. I recommend printing double sided.

Scale Drawing & Bearings - Map of Europe

(1)
I wanted to make a more interesting scale drawing activity for my higher attaining students to practice using scales and bearings. This is a blank map of Europe that the students need to populate with various capital cities using the given bearings and scales. It is relatively* accurate in how it represents the relationships between the cities, although I would not use it as an atlas. It is quite a challenging task but I have found the students enjoy giving it a go and it takes up most of the lesson. It is always interesting to see where the various cities end up - usually Athens get placed in the Mediterranean! Enjoy.
